Turtle Beach presents the Stealth Pivot, a new premium smart controller for PC and Xbox.
Gaming accessory manufacturer Turtle Beach introduces a new controller: The Turtle Beach Stealth Pivot. This new premium smart controller works in both wireless and wired modes for Windows 10/11 PCs and is compatible with Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One as an advanced wired controller.
The Stealth Pivot features Bluetooth 5.2 for connecting to compatible Android devices and smart TVs. Special features of the controller are the unique, rotating control modules for the thumbstick and buttons, which enable easy, precise and improved gameplay for every game type.
One of the layouts features traditional PC and Xbox gamepad controls and the modules can be easily rotated and snapped back into place for a stick and button layout more suitable for fighting games. The Stealth Pivot is made from high quality materials, including built-in Hall Effect sensors in the rotating control modules. Players can continue to discover an extensive list of customization options.
“Turtle Beach’s Stealth Pivot takes controllers to the next level by giving gamers the ability to play more of their favorite games with a single controller,” said Cris Keirn, CEO of Turtle Beach Corporation. “The rotating modules, which switch between traditional, fighting game, FPS and MMO button and stick layouts, are an industry first. Its high-quality design and compatibility with PC, Xbox and via Bluetooth make it a great controller for more games on more platforms.”
The Stealth Pivot Wireless Smart Controller is designed for special gameplay. The rotating button and stick modules quickly switch between the main button layouts for FPS, action and racing games on one side and the rotating layouts for fighting and retro games on the other. Gamers can play wirelessly and lag-free on PC with the 2.4GHz wireless transmitter, as well as in wired mode for PC and Xbox consoles with the included USB cable.
You can also connect the controller to compatible Android devices and smart TVs via Bluetooth 5.2. The Stealth Pivot Controller also features Turtle Beach’s Connected Command Display, which offers a variety of customization options, including the ability to display social notifications. Additional customization is possible via the Turtle Beach Control Center 2 app, available on Xbox consoles and PC, as well as iOS and Android devices.
The non-contact Hall Effect AntiDrift Thumbsticks give the Stealth Pivot high-resolution, fluid control without drift, while the adjustable trigger stops can be adjusted on-the-fly to suit the game in question – shorter hair trigger locks for faster FPS games or on Full speed set for precise throttle and brake control in racing games.
There are also four assignable microswitch buttons and up to five onboard profiles, allowing players to tailor the Stealth Pivot to their exact preferences per game.
For in-game adjustments in seconds, the Stealth Pivot features a quick-slide adjustment switch in the middle. This switch features a return-to-center toggle switch and customizable RGB lighting that can be assigned to a variety of functions.
The controller’s D-Pad can be set to a classic digital input or analog thumb control and tuned for quick actuation and reset, ideal for executing critical combos or completing intricate platform jumps.
Turtle Beach’s Pro-Aim Focus Mode, which optimizes thumbstick sensitivity for improved long-range accuracy, is also available as a preset for each of the four assignable buttons.
Dual rumble motors in the controller’s grips and triggers provide strong vibration feedback and are fully adjustable via the Connected Command Display. Thanks to the long wireless battery life of 20 hours, PC gamers are always in the middle of the action, and the included USB cable allows for gaming and charging when the battery is empty.
The USB cable is required for use with Xbox consoles. Additionally, like every Turtle Beach controller, the Stealth Pivot offers the ability to connect a 3.5mm wired headset to take advantage of a number of key Turtle Beach gaming audio features, including EQ presets, Superhuman Hearing, game and chat -Volume mix and more.
The Turtle Beach Stealth Pivot Controller will be released on November 26, 2024 and can be purchased at Turtlebeach.com and at participating retailers such as Amazon can be pre-ordered worldwide at a price of $129.99 RRP.
